Operator Environment
The Spirit Delta cab gives the operator an efficient and safe place to work from. The cab design is the end result of a major study of operators' working conditions. The most important goal is to offer optimum visibility with no forward corner posts and huge glass areas unobstructed to keep the field of vision clear. The ergonomically designed instrument panel is extremely comfortable and gently rounded. This specific area has also been designed with an unobstructed clear view of all essential information, in order to keep the operator functioning as effectively as possible.
Noise levels and vibration controls are kept low due to the insulated mounting on the chassis. So that they can maintain an optimal working position, the operator seat and hydraulic controls are all individually adjustable. In addition, the steering wheel and related panel is adjustable for utmost comfort. There are 2 simple to operate, ergonomically positioned multi-functioned levers which are offered for windscreen wipers, gear changing, the horn and window washers.
A ventilation/heating unit ensure a comfy cab temperature for the operator. The incoming air is replaced by an air filter. This is easily replaceable and the unit slides out afterwards to make serviceability an easy option. The machinery has a robust 3-speed fan for heating, cooling, defrosting and recirculation. As an additional option, air conditioning could be fitted.
Instrumentation
In the Spirit Delta, the instrument panel has logically grouped units which are all within easy reach. Standard instrumentation includes: high coolant temperature, low brake pressure, low engine and gearbox lubrication oil pressure, warning lamps, applied parking brake and high gearbox oil temperature. Furthermore, gauges display values for operating time, fuel quantity, engine coolant and gearbox oil pressure.
Among the important options the 8 to 10 tonne trucks can be outfitted with is the ECS or also called Electronic Control System monitoring. This enables for easy supervision of the model. All of the monitoring functions are handled by the ECS and incorporated by this system. The full text display and the single warning lamp show any faults that happen and their current values.
